BACKGROUND Domestic/family homicide (D/FH) is a global social, economic and public health problem. To date, the research studies into risk factors associated with D/FH has largely focused on intimate partner homicide (IPH). A more contemporary approach recognizes that D/FH extends beyond the intimate partner relationship. This systematic review sought to identify and quantify the individual, relationship, community and societal factors in the empirical evidence literature on D/FH. METHODS Eight electronic databases were searched from January 1999 to December 2020. Published journal articles on studies of D/FH were included if the study included victims and/or perpetrator of D/FH, reported risk and/or protective factors associated with D/FH, reported primary data and was published in English. Factors were descriptively synthesized by the categories of the social ecological model and D/FH sub-type. RESULTS Three hundred and forty published articles met the inclusion criteria. From 1999 to 2020 the number of articles on D/FH increased globally from 10 to 40 respectively, declining to 23 in 2020. Almost half of the articles examined populations located in the Americas (160, 47.1%), predominately the United States and the majority of articles used quantitative designs (277, 81.5%). The forms of homicide more commonly studied were intimate partner (171, 50.3%), and filicide (98, 28.8%). Approximately 90% of articles reported individual victim and perpetrator factors, 64.7% examined relationship factors, 17.9% examined community factors and 15.6% examined societal factors. CONCLUSION To inform universal and targeted D/FH elimination and prevention strategies, more research across different regions and a greater emphasis on community and societal-level factors is needed.

家庭/家庭凶杀案：对实证证据的系统回顾。

背景技术家庭/家庭凶杀案(D/FH) 是一个全球性的社会、经济和公共卫生问题。迄今为止，对与 D/FH 相关的风险因素的研究主要集中在亲密伴侣杀人 (IPH) 上。一种更现代的方法认识到 D/FH 超越了亲密伴侣关系。本系统评价旨在确定和量化 D/FH 经验证据文献中的个人、关系、社区和社会因素。方法 从 1999 年 1 月到 2020 年 12 月搜索了八个电子数据库。如果研究包括 D/FH 的受害者和/或肇事者、报告的与 D/FH 相关的风险和/或保护因素，则包括关于 D/FH 研究的已发表期刊文章, 报告了主要数据并以英文发表。因素通过社会生态模型和 D/FH 子类型的类别进行描述性综合。结果 340 篇发表的文章符合纳入标准。从 1999 年到 2020 年，全球范围内关于 D/FH 的文章数量分别从 10 篇增加到 40 篇，到 2020 年下降到 23 篇。几乎一半的文章检查了位于美洲的人群（160 篇，47.1%），主要是美国和大多数文章使用量化设计 (277, 81.5%)。更常研究的杀人形式是亲密伴侣 (171, 50.3%) 和亲子杀人 (98, 28.8%)。大约 90% 的文章报告了个体受害者和施暴者因素，64.7% 检查了关系因素，17.9% 检查了社区因素，15.6% 检查了社会因素。
